Ridgemill Estate Cabernet Merlot 2012

Slow cooked meats and a glass or two of this will warm the soul on a chilly night.

With five years already under its belt, the satisfaction dial is cranked high here.

There's plenty happening - blackcurrant, cassis, and cigar box all combining well. A sprinkling of dried herbs and a wash of chocolate mint late. More time in the glass and some black tea characters poke their head through. Long and smooth, not only good drinking but good value.
